When holiday season came around and the smell of coffee started emanating from my kitchen, it meant only one thing: mocha chocolate chip cookies. To mix up the classic frosted snowmen and Christmas tree cookies, my mom would bake these flavorful cookies that always seemed very adult to me. Now, as a college student who seeks caffeine wherever I can get it, I crave these cookies on a daily basis.

This recipe will give you eggless, caffeinated cookie dough, making it unlikely that the batter will ever make it into the oven. But if your will power is strong enough, I can’t think of any cookie that tastes better freshly baked. The strong coffee is perfectly offset by the dark chocolate, which of course is best appreciated when it’s still melting. Give these cookies a try, whether it’s from the hot oven or straight from the mixing bowl.
